Flowers!!!

I know this is an old lady thing to do, but we have some great flowers that's all I'm sayin. The peach/pinkish ones that stand real tall here, I love those. We just have some great colors. Naomi picked the little pink cluster right in front, and when we planted them like 2 months ago there were only like 4. You can still see the remnants of some little red ones we had right in front of those if you look close. Our neighbors puppies got hungry on em. Anyway, I'm pretty sure we have the coolest little front area in the.......... area. Again with the old lady here, but we've also been having some fantastic weather: Some of the mildest summer days with nice cool breezes I've ever experienced. It rains enough to keep in lush and beautiful, but the sun comes out all the time too. I think it's pretty perfect. Thats all.

Diapers!

So for all of you who do not know, we use cloth diapers, and it works out really well for us. Cloth diapers are not what they used to be, and if anyone does any research you will find that there are all kinds of fancy and adorable cloth diapers out there. Those fancy, adorable ones are also crazy expensive. We are talking $15 to $25 per diaper! We just use prefolds and covers and we love them, but we have recently decided to become more exclusive cloth diaper users. Meaning cloth diapering at night and using them in the diaper bag. When you get into night time and diaper bag usage, that is when those fancy fitted and all in one diapers are really appealing, but still really expensive. I can double diaper Lawson at night, and it works, but it's quite bulky. Prefolds also work in the diaper bag, but trying to get it folded and in the cover on a fold out diaper station in a walmart bathroom, while trying to keep Lawson from rolling off is a little nerve racking. Here enters my recent obsession with learning how to make my own fancy diapers. I made my first one out of a lavender colored flannel pillow case and an old white T-shirt. It turned out alright; it's functional and reasonably cute, but girly. I made my second one last night out of one of Jamie's old Williams-Sonoma shirts, a plain white T and the other flannel pillow case, and behold, my very own adorable fitted cloth diaper! Did I mention that I don't really know how to sew.

Here he is in the diaper I made; isn't he so adorable?

Lawson's Crawling!

Lawson has been making his way around the floor for a while now, but finally started crawling forward about a week ago. He is so much fun, and we can't believe how fast he's growing. He's interested in everything except for his toys; the book shelf is his favorite, followed by the movies. Also, check out my cute diaper.
